I just can't wait to see what new characters they're going to introduce. As a lot of people would have seen from the bigger DC comics thread the newest cover for issue 6 has Fang-Man on it. Would love to see more Filmation characters appearing.

I hate when they kill characters off for shock and awe...and "buy our issue!!!!" type of advertising. I mean, they killed off a character in the Despera one-shot which really ****** me off! See spoilers below:

They killed off Flutterina. She didn't even get a name attached to her or speaking parts, just a sword through the gut and tossed aside like a sack of waste. In the Filmation cartoon, she got TWO origin episodes! She even has her own mini-comic. She wasn't treated with respect at all. I LOVED everything about the Despera issue except for their treatment of Flutterina. It's not 100% confirmed she is dead (they COULD bring her back), but later in the issue Despera said how many people were killed and how many held captive, so things look very bleak...especially because they're killing someone else off in this new issue!

I would enjoy more story, less gimmicks (like heaving bossoms with plunging cleavage about to fall out and killing off major characters each issue).

I'm still very excited about the series, but they need to either stop killing off characters or build up to it and give the characters SOME story, depth and speaking parts, so their deaths aren't meaningless and throwaway.

I'm also looking forward to MGM's reaction to the disappearance of blonde haired Teela.

Hey Darkspecter, on the spoiler front, since I'm holding off on reading the six issue series & have not read the digitals...do you think the spoiler you listed will be 'fixed'? Will the timeline go back? I hope so.

I really hope so! If not, there could be a way around what happened...

I don't fully remember the Filmation episode at the moment, but the "Small One" (who was pretty much a slave) went into a cocoon and when she emerged, she was Flutterina. They could do something like this with Flutterina. She was wounded very badly and cocooned herself to heal and emerge more powerful. I think that would be cool. She'd also have a bone to pick with Despera.

I love NA Teela (although I WISH she was NA She-Ra ). Honestly though, I think they're getting rid of blonde Teela because of everything we talked about when the series first started: we didn't know if she was Teela or She-Ra. So, to remove the confusion, they gave Teela back her red hair. That's my guess. Plus, it's having the three main heroes having blonde hair and NO red heads (which was unique), just seems silly to me. I mean, what is this, the Aryan race comic? (blonde hair, blue eyes).

AWESOME. I'm amazed that we are getting new MOTU fiction. That's just amazing. Too bad it's not everyone's cup of tea. I wish everyone could be as happy as I am about this. Ongoing MOTU stories in 2013.... So freakin cool.

Hybrid Tella = Yes Please! (she is the best of both worlds...long red hair with a bikini, thought I think this one looks more bad ass)

Chain mail jock He-Man = Yes Please!

Regardless of how we, individualy, feel about the comic, I would think we all can agree it's great to see He-Man & MOTU back in the lime light! This, I would think, is a great, if not the best, way to "reintroduce He-Man & MOTU back into "main stream". All the licensing products have been great but I think the comic will really make an impact for a resurgence of interest in He-Man & MOTU.

It's great to see, also, how they are "reintroducing" She-Ra. As a BAD ASS KILLER! I think this will give She-Ra more mainstream appeal; tragic but true. I think the "death" of one of the most frilly, girlie characters of She-Ra POP, makes sense. Hear me out...I just see alot of hesitation, in regards to male fans, with She-Ra because of the ultra femminie marketing i.e. colors, characters, toys, etc. Looking at her right now...she's a scary looking Horde killer! She gets cool points...she gets the male vote because you see her hard scary side FIRST. Not as Force Captian Adora. When you compare Force Captian Adora to other Horde members, she is not menacing enough to be "taken seriously".

I am sure at some point we'll see the She-Ra we "know" all-be-it a bit more hard-core; no doubt! As a She-Ra POP fan it does my childish heart good to see She-Ra & He-Man wrapped into one story again! They didn't have to include her....but they did!!

Also, if the story line goes well we may see a mini-series from She-Ra POP, and if THAT goes well maybe her own monthly too.

Regardless if we end up with 2 or 1 title(s) it's AWESOME to see He-Man along with She-Ra getting some much needed "mainstream" love!

Not crazy about there not being any mention of Dave Wilkins, though, but THRILLED they're picking up with the Despera story.

Girls do do that, so it might be best if they just keep to a simple explanation like this.

Also, I haven't loved the 6 issue series, but it's still damn fun to get new MOTU entertainment every month for just a few bucks. However I HAVE loved the digital comics, which is why I'm so excited that that's the story they're going with.
